| Michael holding a butterfly |
Three days before 20 year-old Adam Lanza killed his mother, then opened fire on a classroom full of Connecticut kindergartners, my 13-year old son Michael (name changed) missed his bus because he was wearing the wrong color pants.
“I can wear these pants,” he said, his tone increasingly
belligerent, the black-hole pupils of his eyes swallowing the blue irises.
“They are navy blue,” I told him. “Your school’s dress code
says black or khaki pants only.”
“They told me I could wear these,” he insisted. “You’re a
stupid bitch. I can wear whatever pants I want to. This is America. I have
rights!”
“You can’t wear whatever pants you want to,” I said, my tone
affable, reasonable. “And you definitely cannot call me a stupid bitch. You’re
grounded from electronics for the rest of the day. Now get in the car, and I
will take you to school.”
I live with a son who is mentally ill. I love my son. But he
terrifies me.
A few weeks ago, Michael pulled a knife and threatened to
kill me and then himself after I asked him to return his overdue library books.
His 7 and 9 year old siblings knew the safety plan—they ran to the car and
locked the doors before I even asked them to. I managed to get the knife from Michael,
then methodically collected all the sharp objects in the house into a single
Tupperware container that now travels with me. Through it all, he continued to
scream insults at me and threaten to kill or hurt me.
That conflict ended with three burly police officers and a
paramedic wrestling my son onto a gurney for an expensive ambulance ride to the
local emergency room. The mental hospital didn’t have any beds that day, and Michael
calmed down nicely in the ER, so they sent us home with a prescription for
Zyprexa and a follow-up visit with a local pediatric psychiatrist.
We still don’t know what’s wrong with Michael. Autism
spectrum, ADHD, Oppositional Defiant or Intermittent Explosive Disorder have
all been tossed around at various meetings with probation officers and social
workers and counselors and teachers and school administrators. He’s been on a
slew of antipsychotic and mood altering pharmaceuticals, a Russian novel of
behavioral plans. Nothing seems to work.
At the start of seventh grade, Michael was accepted to an
accelerated program for highly gifted math and science students. His IQ is off
the charts. When he’s in a good mood, he will gladly bend your ear on subjects
ranging from Greek mythology to the differences between Einsteinian and
Newtonian physics to Doctor Who. He’s in a good mood most of the time. But when
he’s not, watch out. And it’s impossible to predict what will set him off.
Several weeks into his new junior high school, Michael began
exhibiting increasingly odd and threatening behaviors at school. We decided to
transfer him to the district’s most restrictive behavioral program, a contained
school environment where children who can’t function in normal classrooms can
access their right to free public babysitting from 7:30-1:50 Monday through
Friday until they turn 18.
The morning of the pants incident, Michael continued to
argue with me on the drive. He would occasionally apologize and seem
remorseful. Right before we turned into his school parking lot, he said, “Look,
Mom, I’m really sorry. Can I have video games back today?”
“No way,” I told him. “You cannot act the way you acted this
morning and think you can get your electronic privileges back that quickly.”
His face turned cold, and his eyes were full of calculated
rage. “Then I’m going to kill myself,” he said. “I’m going to jump out of this
car right now and kill myself.”
That was it. After the knife incident, I told him that if he
ever said those words again, I would take him straight to the mental hospital,
no ifs, ands, or buts. I did not respond, except to pull the car into the
opposite lane, turning left instead of right.
“Where are you taking me?” he said, suddenly worried. “Where
are we going?”
“You know where we are going,” I replied.
“No! You can’t do that to me! You’re sending me to hell! You’re
sending me straight to hell!”
I pulled up in front of the hospital, frantically waiving
for one of the clinicians who happened to be standing outside. “Call the
police,” I said. “Hurry.”
Michael was in a full-blown fit by then, screaming and
hitting. I hugged him close so he couldn’t escape from the car. He bit me several
times and repeatedly jabbed his elbows into my rib cage. I’m still stronger than
he is, but I won’t be for much longer.
The police came quickly and carried my son screaming and
kicking into the bowels of the hospital. I started to shake, and tears filled
my eyes as I filled out the paperwork—“Were there any difficulties with....at
what age did your child....were there any problems with...has your child ever
experienced...does your child have....”
At least we have health insurance now. I recently accepted a
position with a local college, giving up my freelance career because when you
have a kid like this, you need benefits. You’ll do anything for benefits. No
individual insurance plan will cover this kind of thing.
For days, my son insisted that I was lying—that I made the
whole thing up so that I could get rid of him. The first day, when I called to
check up on him, he said, “I hate you. And I’m going to get my revenge as soon
as I get out of here.”
By day three, he was my calm, sweet boy again, all apologies
and promises to get better. I’ve heard those promises for years. I don’t
believe them anymore.
On the intake form, under the question, “What are your
expectations for treatment?” I wrote, “I need help.”
And I do. This problem is too big for me to handle on my
own. Sometimes there are no good options. So you just pray for
grace and trust that in hindsight, it will all make sense.
I am sharing this story because I am Adam Lanza’s mother. I
am Dylan Klebold’s and Eric Harris’s mother. I am James Holmes’s mother. I am
Jared Loughner’s mother. I am Seung-Hui Cho’s mother. And these boys—and their
mothers—need help. In the wake of another horrific national tragedy, it’s easy
to talk about guns. But it’s time to talk about mental illness.
According to Mother Jones, since 1982, 61 mass murders
involving firearms have occurred throughout the country. (http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/07/mass-shootings-map).
Of these, 43 of the killers were white males, and only one was a woman. Mother
Jones focused on whether the killers obtained their guns legally (most did).
But this highly visible sign of mental illness should lead us to consider how many
people in the U.S. live in fear, like I do.
When I asked my son’s social worker about my options, he
said that the only thing I could do was to get Michael charged with a crime. “If
he’s back in the system, they’ll create a paper trail,” he said. “That’s the
only way you’re ever going to get anything done. No one will pay attention to
you unless you’ve got charges.”
I don’t believe my son belongs in jail. The chaotic
environment exacerbates Michael’s sensitivity to sensory stimuli and doesn’t
deal with the underlying pathology. But it seems like the United States is
using prison as the solution of choice for mentally ill people. According to
Human Rights Watch, the number of mentally ill inmates in U.S. prisons
quadrupled from 2000 to 2006, and it continues to rise—in fact, the rate of inmate
mental illness is five times greater (56 percent) than in the non-incarcerated
population. (http://www.hrw.org/news/2006/09/05/us-number-mentally-ill-prisons-quadrupled)
With state-run treatment centers and hospitals shuttered,
prison is now the last resort for the mentally ill—Rikers Island, the LA County
Jail, and Cook County Jail in Illinois housed the nation’s largest treatment
centers in 2011 (http://www.npr.org/2011/09/04/140167676/nations-jails-struggle-with-mentally-ill-prisoners)
No one wants to send
a 13-year old genius who loves Harry Potter and his snuggle animal collection
to jail. But our society, with its stigma on mental illness and its broken
healthcare system, does not provide us with other options. Then another
tortured soul shoots up a fast food restaurant. A mall. A kindergarten
classroom. And we wring our hands and say, “Something must be done.”
I agree that something must be done. It’s time for a
meaningful, nation-wide conversation about mental health. That’s the only way
our nation can ever truly heal.
God help me. God help Michael. God help us all.

«Oldest ‹Older 3601 – 3760 of 3760On further reading I'm not sure how comparable the two situations actually are. Regardless, I do wish everyone who needs mental help would get it. I hope your family finds the healing it needs.
Have you considered the fact that your son might have been sexually abused? And for that matter, all of the parents who have children with these "angry outbursts"? I am sure they are more than terrifying but there is usually something deeper that a parent doesn't want to recognize as the MAIN issue that the child doesn't know how to cope with.
The naivete and simple-mindedness of so many posters here continues to baffle and amaze me. Could any of you who proclaim LL as "brave" or a "hero" please explain where the bravery and heroism is in not only blaming your 13 year old son for all of your own shortcomings (be it as a parent or in general), but also publicizing this for the world to see while refusing to acknowledge your own role in the problems even once? sounds more like a narcissistic liar and coward to me.
Before you reply, please check out my new blog to learn the truth about mental illness and its causes.
eradicatementalillness.blogspot.com
I was this child and your story brought tears to my eyes. Looking back I realize that I would not be here today without the loving support of the Therapeutic Foster Care system where trained personnel TAUGHT me how to regulate my emotions, learn the signs and what I needed in order to prevent “melt downs.” I’ve worked in the same system with children 13-21 who have been “diagnosed” with a plethora of disorders and trained staff & parents alike on how to assist these children to become productive members of society who CAN manage their own emotions. For those willing to learn evidence based techniques that don’t always have to involve restraints or lock up look for Therapeutic Crisis Intervention for Family Care Providers classes around your area.
I read this article today http://www.anchoragepress.com/news/the-gluten-made-her-do-it-how-going-gluten-free/article_39e2478e-4585-11e2-a80c-0019bb2963f4.html? and it made me think about your article. It's long but a dynamic read
Many sociopaths did not have access to intelligence testing in the past. Would knowing they were "brilliant" have made a difference? It seems that because of intelligence we refuse to look at the reality of what we're dealing with here. Is it ok to lock up a murderer of average or below average intelligence, but not ok to lock up a "brilliant" sociopath, because he/she has a high IQ and we've come of with fancy names for rage and willingness to inflict harm on others? Please, consider that it is actually UNKIND and lazy to not contain these people indefinitely if they "can't" control their vicious impulses, no matter how cute or cuddly they are when everything is going their way. To let them hurt or kill others ruins there lives, and the lives of their families. What is better to have on our conscience, that we have a loved one in a locked facility where they are taken care of and visited, or to feel responsible for the crimes or murders they commit? And if you truly believe they couldn't control themselves and need "care", how dare we then not give them the care they need, including life in a secured facility?
I can't even imagine. My heart aches for you, and for Michael. As horrible as it sounds for you, I can't even imagine the terror and fear and pain that he must be feeling through all of this. Not knowing why he feels the way he does, or behaves the way he does, thinks the things that he does. He feels helpless. It's like you said, 'this is too big for me to handle,' I'm sure that this is how your son feels too. If it's too big for you, then it must be insurmountable for him. Imaging having to be Michael.
Our nation must take care of it's mentally ill. There is not enough money, time, energy or love put into the mentally ill. We treat them like pariahs, and want to cast them aside. Reading this post made me think about all of the people in prison who have made it there because they are mentally ill. In many ways, our culture is draconian and trapped in the black bible thumping days when you just imprisoned people or killed them if they were not sound of mind. It's a complex situation, and running from it, jailing it, will not solve the issue. There are probably many people who need to be institutionalized, and many more who suffer from mental illness who do not, and we cannot decipher between the two until there is some real funding being put into research in order to help those who can be helped. When that time comes, if that time comes, we will still be left with a handful of people who cannot be helped.
You are not the only one who feels helpless about Michael. We all SHOULD feel that way, because we are, in a sense. This is not your burden, it is our burden. We are a united people. And part of the reason why this happens is because we are not truly a united people. This only becomes evident when the Sandy Hook shooting issues arise, or when you take the time to write your post, and everyone sends their condolences, but then does nothing further. No one is to blame, but it is never too late to revise how we think, and it is never too late to grab issues like this and take them seriously. It is only a matter of time before Sandy Hook becomes covered by the sands of time, and we all 'move on.' Let's not move on. Let's not be hamstrung by our fears. This is a sign that we need to do something, now, all of us, starting everywhere, grassroots, at the top. We are one nation. We are one people, and we must treat those like Michael who suffer as we would treat ourselves should we find ourselves faced with such a thing in our own lives.
What can we do? Who can we talk to? What can we start? Who is on board? And if your answer is no, then why aren't you?
So, what's next? Who do we call? Who can I call? What can I do to help Michael, to help you, to help myself, to help us all.
I've been following your blog posts and the resumes or solutions range from those trying to be helpful to those blaming single parenthood and bad parenting. But overwhelming it astounds me to those critics who think they know all. Let me tell you all this. Until you live with a child with a mental illness, you cannot prescribe help. Mental illness regardless of whether its clinical depression or any other kind of manifestation is not something any parent is trained or equipped with the skills to handle. you love your child and try to do you best, but often you love and good intentions are not enough. There's plenty of resources out there for getting pregnant and having a baby, but there's nothing when your child doesn't fit the norm. Believe me, I know. My son threatened suicide and then to kill his father. That was his first hospitalization. It took 3.5 years to get him the help he needs. See my son suffered from serious clinical depression and social anxiety disorder. He refused to leave the house. we needed a psychiatric evaluation, but when your son won't leave the house, you can't get one. There's no such thing as mobile psychiatry. To make matters wors, in the state of Pennsylvania a 14 year old can make mental health decisions for themselves. That means they don't have to attend any sort of therapy or any type of program unless they consent. Essentially as a parent, you are stripped of any rights to your child's mental health treatment. Two days before Christmas 2011, I had no other option. I petitioned the court to essentially abdicate my rights to my child. This was the only way to get help. We did get the help we need one year later after being forced to try every mental health service out there. This all could have been avoided if there was such a thing a mobile psychiatrists. I 've been told time and again by different mental health professionals that I was a tee endows advocate for my son. Reality is, the system is not set up to help people or parents who want it. You must pay and play the game. it took us four hospitalizations, a partial hospitalizations, family based and outpatient therapy along with about 8 trips to court to get the help my son needed and deserved. So to all who judge and prescribe, your intentions might be in the right spot. But reality is, the mental health system is not set up to effectively manage true mental illness. It's a horror my family has faced and one I wouldn't wish on my enemy. It's critical that mental health issues are brought to the national level. Judge and blame get us all nowhere. We must mobilize around the fact that there is not support for parents and for those with a mental illness. I implore all of you to think and imagine what my (our) lives may be like. One ounce of empathy will go far in a world that's lonely,dark and often persecuted.
"Hope for the Violently Aggressive Child"
That's the name of a book and also a website in which some doctors present a new approach for dealing with severe meltdowns, aggression and rages.
The new approach is based on adrenaline acting medications, not psychotropic drugs. This means fewer side effects and risks, more affordable, and from the testimonials you can see there it is also more effective.
An non-functioning autistic child went to a functional state in a week by following the Paleolithic diet. That is one of countless breakthroughs that have happened when the body ingests nutritional substances instead of ones that react like poison in it. A well fueled body is strong, balanced and healthy. This includes physical and mental since the body is one interconnected system.
From the website madinamerica.com:
Laura DeLano – a child victim and escapee of psychiatry – tells us how she is viewing and experiencing this article and offers a challenge to the mother who wrote the piece “I Am Adam Lanza’s Mother” in the aftermath of the recent tragedy in Connecticut.
A Challenge to “I Am Adam Lanza’s Mother” | Mad In America. The biochemical model of the illness stigmatizes, which leads to anger, anxiety, and social isolation.

Dear all parents,these people helped my son and us, where no doctors could help us anymore... Our son was acting very similar to Michael.
They were able to help and completely positively changed our lives! Hope this link helps: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/vickers_tree/2012/12/23/shamans-papa-wango-and-djally-return
I think it is time for every American to read Robert Whitaker's book, An Anatomy of Epidemic and start learning about tremendously negative long-term effects of psychiatric drugs. Please start educating yourself ASAP. Psychiatrists have created epidemic or mental illness in the US, which is iatrogenic in kind. Do they even realize that? If yes, they are criminals who need to be prosecuted for handing out Prosac and Zyprexa to toddlers and young children. Mental illness in this country skyrocketed in early 1990s with the advent of Prosac, which in the long term creates chemical imbalance in the brain and leads to depression, anxiety, rages and other abnormalities. "Soccer mom" and other parents, please begin educating yourself about the long-term effects of the drugs you are giving to your children.

THANK U & BLESS U! I raised a violent and mentally ill daughter. I had her to a shrink by age 4 due to her violence. We got meds, she threw them out the window; we took her to talk-therapy, she would only say untruths about me. She beat me, threatened to kill me. She burnt down my mothers house and my car (yes, cars DO melt) destroyed my marriage, put mom in the hospital 7 times and tried to murder me twice. Now, I have broken contact with her. Back in the 80s we did not speak of this - it was ALWAYS the mother's fault. I am so glad u spoke up. I STILL live in fear to answer my door.
Thank you for being so brave. This video touched me, much like your piece. It's a story of a brave father who adopted a child with known psychological issues. We can't understand what you must go through on a daily basis unless you, and others like Thom Shuman, speak up.
http://news.cincinnati.com/VideoNetwork/2051848615001/Preventing-the-unspeakable-
Oh how my heart goes out to you. When my 7-year-old daughter started having violent outbursts, showed sighs of depression, and became sullen and out of control, we were at a loss. It really frustrates me to see the comments about you not disciplining your child enough. Punishing an explosive child only creates a more explosive child. So many parents offer well intended advice, but have neither the experience or education to back it up. I have two MA degrees in psychology and I can tell you that is not the answer. Equally disparaging are the comments that hospitals and medications won't help. Maybe it didn't help them, maybe it was the wrong diagnosis, the wrong meds, but your son need help. My daughter was in two hospitals before I put her in Meridell (a great place in Texas that does neuro-psych testig, therapy, behavioral management, while diagnosing your child). She spent 3 months there and it was the hardest 3 months of my life, but it saved her life and my sanity. My family went through Hell dealing with her mental health issues. We finally found out that she had been sexually molested by a foreign exchange student we hosted. If a child is genetically predisposed towards mental illness and they have a traumatic experience, there is no way of predicting how it will look. She was diagnosed and treated for being bipolar, but I am happy to say after years of therapy, she is off meds and doing well. I would recommend you researching Heather Forbes and the work she does with RAD and explosive children. It helped us a great deal to learn effective loving ways to contain her anger. If you need support or guidance, please contact me. Don't let the judgements get to you. People just don't understand. I wish you the best! vonnette@gmail.com
Hang in there. I know society doesn't understand. They didn't understand me. My parents didn't know what to do and were and are extremely good parents. I am now 35 and have learned to control my mental illness through medication and behavioral structure. To those who are condemning you I know they don't understand what you are going through. I pray for you and hope that somehow someone is concerned and intelligent enough to find answers. Look at NAMI. (national alliance on mental illness) They do a lot of advocacy and have a lot of resources you might find helpful.
Have you tried changing his diet, focusing on improving his immune system or gut flora?
Drugs are not always the answer.
I hope you realize what a gift you've been given in your child. Imagine, for a moment, if your son were to die tomorrow; would you then be saying to yourself, "well at least I didn't let him go to school wearing the 'wrong' color of pants!" Would you be patting yourself on the back for making sure he had his library books turned in on time? No?
Perhaps it is time to turn attention away from what is 'wrong' with our 'mentally ill' children, and realize what is wrong with us as a society. It's so easy to talk about gun control and mental 'illness', to be sure. But how often do we genuinely appreciate our children and remember, in their innocence, that perhaps they are here to teach US -- not the other way around.
How frustrating must it be for a young teenager, more intelligent than the average human being (let alone his own mother, who brought him into this world) to have to learn how to cope in a society whose priorities are so f*ed up that we are more concerned with following a dress code than allowing individual inquiry and freedom of imagination? Freedom to be ourselves?
In hindsight, it will all make sense. When your son can't take the criticisms and judgments anymore, when he can no longer bear this narrow-minded society, and you become, truly, Adam Lanza's Mother -- it will all make sense. You will come to realize, in your final moments, that the battles you chose to fight in life, with your son, have no more bearing as you die. As we all will die, eventually, think on how you want to live. Think on what's really important. If your son were to die tomorrow, would your primary concern be the color of pants he wears in his casket? Or will you remember how he lived? With joy, intelligence, curiosity, peace, love, laughter, light? Let the other stuff go. Your son seems to be smarter and more sensitive than most, that is obviously true. Instead of trying to force him to fit into any kind of predetermined mold or slap on a socially-constructed label, allow him to be the unique and beautiful individual that he is... that we all are. The vast majority of society may be bought-in to a consumer culture of norms and rules and American 'values' which ensure homogeneity and order, but it is always the creative rogues who have the courage to think outside the lines who make lasting improvements to humankind and culture. Be bold. Be courageous. Be accepting of your role as the NURTURER of this genius you've given birth to. Instead of trying to make him fit in with the rest of the 'free public babysat', encourage him to be different! Who cares about library books being overdue? Buy him the damn books so he can keep them and continue teaching himself!! He obviously knows something about Life that many of us unfortunately are lacking. Allow him to teach us a few things about what is and is not important. If he would rather die a rebel than have his soul smothered by our ridiculous notions of societal structure... well, I'm with him. Frankly, I believe your son is an inspiration, a voice, a lesson, we all need to listen to. And you my dear, YOU, have been BLESSED with the opportunity to love and honor and nurture his growth, to aid and support and encourage and assist him upon his incredible journey. You already have all the tools you need; God in his grace has given them and your son to you as gifts. You need only to learn how to use them. Listen to your son, carefully, quietly, calmly, and he will tell you how.
Liza,
I'm a reporter working on an in-depth story about what we need to do to improve the failing mental-healthcare system in this country, and have been trying (unsuccessfully) to figure out a way to contact you directly with a couple questions. If you see this comment, could you email me at paulsona@csmonitor.com? Thanks, and sorry to be trying this through a public comment on your blog! - Amanda
Putting a voice to it; writing about it; is sometimes the only thing we can control. I admire your strength and wish you luck.
I was with you most of the way thru your story until you said that your son loves "harry potter"...what is there to love about a wiccan story? It is all about witchcraft...you chose it for him. We need to give them the story's about GOD...the LIVING things so they can recognize good from evil. I pray that you can reach him with the LOVE that gives life eternal and freedom from death.
Re: Travis Mays, December 15, 2012 at 11:16 PM
Sad. You've never seen this or experienced this. That's obvious. I'm a school teacher in North Carolina and I've seen it. A child out of control. They're not logical. They're inconsistent. Rambo one moment and Ghandi the next. It's not natural. Something's wrong with them and they need help. Lay off her. She's not lying about her son's behavior and she's not a bad mother for committing her son.
It was a terrible decision, a horrible choice, but she is at the limit of her ability to care for her son. Do you really think she hasn't agonized over this decision, this growing problem that wasn't getting any better? She's done everything for him. Rearranged her life for him, lost friends, and God knows what other sacrifices to care for him. She's a good mother precisely because she committed her son.
I wonder what you would have done if Michael were your son. You should get on your hands and knees right now thanking God that you don't have to bear this burden. And while you're there pray for mercy since you apparently have no pity for others. Especially those who took the time to share their heart and their pain.
Thank you for sharing this with us. My prayers are with you. God bless you and your family.
Sounds bad but isn't that bad! Diagnosis: ADD and serious Mood Swings. Nothing more. It's simple brain science. The ADD brain is unbalanced with the frontal left lobe underperforming. Thus the remaining 3/4 of the brain must run in overdrive to compensate. This causes inefficient energy usage by the ADD brain and leaves it highly fatigued compared to a normal non-ADD brains. ADD brains being fatigued cause serious deep sleeping also leading to bed wetting. ADD deep sleepers have trouble getting up in the morning as well. This is why consistent sleep schedules and meal schedules are so important for ADD children. Mood swings can be managed by managing sleep and meal schedules and proper caloric intake. Too few calories and not enough sleep and Watch Out!
Thank you so much for sharing your story! I have been feeling very alone because I have a young child that also is on medications that don't seem to be helping and at times it is scary to think of what the future may hold for him. I love my son more than anything in the world, but it is a lonely place to be in because some people truly don't understand what you go through on a day to day basis. God bless you, your son and the rest of your family.

That you will know peace and harmony, that you will find compassionate insightful psychological support.
Nice post!
Great collection of comfort color nice pants are available at wholesale rates.
Dear Liza. I am touched by your story and I admire your bravery to share it. I would like to ask if you ever considered taking 'Michael' for Auditory Integration Training (AIT). I truly believe he will benefit greatly from it. More information is available at www.aitinstitute.org, www.georgianainstitute.org and www.filteredsoundtraining.org. I will keep you in my prayers. Vici (Filtered Sound Training Practitioner)
I'm so sorry for the pain you are going through but you are strong and you will get through this. Thank you for sharing such a private, heart wrenching story with the world, you have courage. Peace be with you.
The reality is that we must attack guns, but it is critical to understand that "all men and women are NOT created equal!" We are not doing a very good job of intervening, educating, teaching skills, early recognition/intervention. Diagnoses and labels are often not leading to appropriate treatment. Early intervention with educating parents, teachers, social milieu, providing additional treatment intervention in facilitating ongoing neurodevelopmental progression, specific skills, adaptation/accommodation, etc. Parents coming together will be the voice of reason in accessing appropriate and productive early intervention! David E. Nilsson Ph.D
I really doubt you will be able to read all the posts as this has gone on some time now. I hope you get help from someone sensible. The Dr. who said we must attack guns then left the dribble they all fall back on when they fail is not going to be helpful for you, but he will be for himself. As a society we protect politicians, actors, musicians, etc. with firearms but we think children will be protected by a sign. The AR-15 is used mostly by women and for protection. If your daughter is alone and 3 punks break in to rape her which is more common than a house fire do you want her to just let them rape her? Or allow her to protect herself and have enough ammo in the firearm to take all 3 down. The reason so many want to remove the AR-15 is they do not want to get shot when they break in to your daughters house. The perverts do not want themselves to get shot or their friends so they want to take them away.
I read this article in class because my teacher made us read it, and it really caught my attention. I am very truly sorry the things that you have gone through, but I feel it was a very inspiring story. So many people now a days complain about the smallest and unimportant things in life, and you have truly been through a rough path. I feel your story is very inspiring, and thank you for telling us about the harsh circumstances and challenges you have had to go through. I agree that our system should be more informed and aware of mental illness and really think about such a thing just as much as getting laws against gun restrictions.
I just found out about this post and realize many of you spoke about being trapped and feeling lost. To all of you feeling that fear, have you heard of Nam-myoho-renge-kyo? It is a meditative Buddhist chant that helps center our mind and bring forth the higher life conditions inherent in all our lives (in commmon words, our good side). With chanting and taking the right actions, we can go through a transformation of behavior and change "poison into medicine." You can find more information here -
www.sgi-usa.org
Also, a program associated to this practice which was launched following the Columbine shooting incident, is a youth-led peace initiative that helps people, adults and children, understand violence and how to tackle the root of violence. What are forms of passive violence that fuels the fire of physical violence? Human reaction and behavior that cannot seem to be solved by drugs or medication may find some answers from this project. It is possible to change rage into compassion -

I hope this helps!
I wish you and your family the best.
I am relieved to find several here who also compassionately challenge the temptation to label mental illness. I know MI well as a clinical social worker that has worked with individuals systematized in the mental health system. The charts all read mental illness and most people in the system have no choice but to use the labels. However there are better, more sophisticated ways of understanding extreme emotional states and behaviors.
After I learned more about how the brain responds to trauma I could see through the behavior to appreciate the elegance of crazy. To the part of a person that is being tortured, inside, the amagdalya so chronically overstimulated, "crazy" brings the only relief. The unconscious response to trauma continues to amaze and awe me as my clients teach me how much sense the crazy makes to them. When it is safe enough to not use such extreme ways to communicate, you can see a different person. All I can say is compassion is incredibly powerful.
I recommend reading Richard Schwartz's description of the system he created to successfully treat such traumatized family systems, called Internal Family Systems Therapy. Often the trauma is an extended legacy in the family stretching back to, and caused by distant and extreme pressures that the family faced long ago. Again, compassion and courage to face and start to tell the whole story takes the extreme pressure off of the select few in the family that are "ill." Few inpatient psych floors are trained in this compassionate approach and instead are tortured by their own pressures in the inadequate health care system for mental health. I recommend following former congressman Patrick Kennedy on his twitter especially during this important time that our country is having these conversations.
Thank you for sharing your story.
Thank you. I too have a son who is now 22, and every experience you wrote about brought a memory for me of a similar one that we have experienced with him. I appreciate your bravery in bringing to light a subject that needs closer examination.
No one can truly understand the hell this is unless they have lived through it.
God bless you and your family.

Often, dramatic actions can exacerbate the sort of "mental issues" your son seems to have. Instead, you need to build a team with him to overcome his issues. For instance, therapy is very helpful, but you need to introduce the practice in a way that makes him feel mature and confident with himself, not the enemy/ outsider/victim. This child may not be diagnosed with a specific illness, but he may simply develop differently and need more attention in specific areas. He is very sensitive, and it is so important to constantly reassure him that you are on his side. Calling the police on him does the opposite. Maybe he needs a break from his current surroundings.

I second looking into the GAPS diet. I've seen a simple diet change do miracles for children. They need to get the right nutrients in the right places or weird things will happen. It's much more complicated than that, but I think that is the primary reason behind massive behavioral changes. Medications just make the issue worse. Try watching food intake and see what changes. Good luck.

Medical assistants must be equipped with good communication skills. As they are
essentially the connecting link between patients and physicians, it is important
for medical assistants to develop soft skills that make the patients feel welcome
and comfortable in a place they don’t really want to be in. Interacting with patients
and their families, providing them all the information they would need in order to e
ase their apprehensions, displaying empathy and understanding the delicacies of
communication in a dispiriting hospital environment, are skills that practices
are imploring their medical assistants to imbibe and develop.

There is no link between violence and autism. Many cases of Pervasive Developmental Disorder (Autism Spectrum) and personality disorders are misdiagnosed. What you should know is PDD lack social cues and are not malicious. Autistic kids have trouble reading faces and understanding if what they are saying is appropriate or not, or knowing when someone is offended by what they said. Autistic kids are more likely to be violent towards themselves than they are towards others for frustration of their condition and the world around them. The have remorse and feel emotions just like you and I.
What you said is maddening. I live with an Autistic brother. Yes he scares me and yes I know the feelings you are describing, however he also has other personality issues and isn't just Autistic. Not to mention it isn't his fault he is the way he is. Parenting can go a long way and there are ways to get help.
I feel worse for your son than I do for you. You don't need help, your son needs help. Posting his story in order to gain sympathy is disgusting because you're taking away from his troubles.
Have you ever thought about "What is going on in my son's head? What is he dealing with on a daily basis?" Being autistic is very hard, and maybe you should try to understand what it is like before acting like a victim yourself. He's a kid, you're an adult, act like one and be a parent.
Maybe something happened to him at school. Instantly blaming his "shortcomings" on his mental illness is deplorable and you, lady, should be down right ashamed of yourself.

Global security: Avoiding the wars that never end
Your post is starting to show up all over facebook. Thank you for the poignant insight into raising Michael. You don't know how many people you will touch and cause to rethink this issue. Thank you.
By: Artis
http://kumpulbarengartis.blogspot.com/
Have you tried Michael on anti-convulsant therapy? His violence sounds like a response to situation stress that he sees no other way of reducing at the moment - a low tolerance for frustration. Treat his anger by helping him to lower his stress threshold. Avoid direct opposition that heightens frustration. Encourage him to tell you when his feelings of frustration are increasing. They are analogous to the aura that persons with epilepsy feel preceding a seizure. Teach him to recognize his thoughts and feelings preceding an uncontrolled outburst. Then, try to work out strategies that he and you can take to downshift his emotional state. Anticonvulsant therapy may help, since it can alter his threshold for seizure-like episodes. Imperturbable, genuinely empathetic kindness is the most effective behavioral antidote. I hope you find this helpful.

There is hope. I wish I could tell you how. I have my own Michael, who shared many of the same behaviors and diagnoses as yours. When he was 11, we got a call from a terrified babysitter who reported that he was trying to stab his sister with scissors. At 12, he burned our uninsured rental house down on purpose in what he said was a suicide attempt. Shortly after, he threatened to kill his mother and me in our sleep. After 7 emergency psychiatric hospitalizations and a "boot camp," he was caught breaking into a home near his school while he was skipping classes, and experienced his first of two stays in juvenile detention. After our divorce, his mother kicked him out and he came to live with me. I had problems with his behavior, he couldn't hold a job, and we got into a fist fight. I gave him a 60-day written notice that he needed to start paying rent or move out, and I had to kick him out with nowhere to go. He lived on the streets for several weeks, and then spent several years couch surfing at the home of friends. He has had three stays in jail (that I know of). Today things are different. He began, slowly, to change after the birth of his first child 7 years ago. By the time his second child was born almost 5 years later, he was a new man. I don't know why, other than that he began to take his role as a parent seriously. He is a wonderful father, has many good friends who would give their lives for him, and we have a good relationship. I am more proud of him than I can express. Now he is waiting for life-saving kidney transplant surgery to be scheduled. The donor? The sister that he tried to kill 15 years ago. I wish I could tell you how and why things changed, but all I can do is offer hope that sometimes they do. Thank you for sharing your story.
I was, as a teenager living in Newtown, CT, another 'Lanza'. Now a transgender woman living her life in a fairly normal manner [ not quite, but...]I will say that, in many ways, I understand your statement about how your son acts up and goes into rages. I too, did this from the time I was three years old; at age 5 the Baldwin Free School Dist. in my hometown of Baldwin,NY expelled me from Kindergarten. I was considered gifted, however was diagnosed with behavioral problems and placed in BOCES-a school for the Emotionally disturbed and those with ADHD like me. unable to play team sports as the physical-sex 'gender' I was raised as, I was BULLIED, TEASED, called everything from ' faggot' to ' girly'. However, I was far smarter, academically, than others my age. when I was 11, my father moved the family to Newtown, Connecticut pop. 17,600 in 1974. He hoped that, with a fresh start, I could learn to fit in at Newtown Middle School. However, I was constantly bullied and they saw me as a " queer"; much like Baldwin but in Newtown they were far meaner.I still threw those temper tantrums, but in Newtown, this led to numerous arrests. within a year I was back in special school at RESCUE, a school run more like juvenile hall than BOCES was.My parents tried to force the school board to pay for private schooling at town expense. Two years later, I begged them to get me out of RESCUE. Again they demanded the town either pay for private school,or place me back into Newtown High; which they did.I soon became much like Lanza, except for smoking pot daily which helped me deal with the bullying not carry out dreams of becoming the Dylan Kliebold of Newtown; the resulting anger from being bullied constantly.the school's guidance counselor, Ms. Fox, sent me to some Yale behavioral center psychologist. His comment:'The child marches to the beat of its own drummer, this despite the discordance it causes others and society as a whole.'Soon, they sent me to a Vocational Rehab counselor who gave me tests; I should be an ' auto mechanic' or ' firefighter'; despite being unable to fix anything or dress in less than an hour. Junior year ended and I dropped out;my parents demanded the town send me to private school. Newtown agreed to ' homebound tutoring' and I went to work. However, I was unable to hold down a job, two years part time was my longest period of full-employment. After attempting one semester of college at Norwalk Tech[ community] At age 42 with an emotional age of 16, I came out as transgender; legally changing my name and gender on ID. I was still living with my Mom, who got sick soon after and, at age 46 and lacking real-life skills, I ended up driving across the country as a homeless transwoman for the following 2-1/2 years. Shelters both discriminated against me and tried to force their mental health treatment on me; a system that is a failure and feels medication is the only answer. After finally getting housing help,I returned to college at New Mexico State-Dona Ana.I want to major in creative writing All I can say is this.It sounds as if you are trying hard to force your child to comply with what is expected of him by society and his school.Speaking for myself, the more someone in authority tries to force me to change; the more I will resist.
I should add, that Newtown's Meanness, to those who do not fit in the popular crowd, has shaped my life even to this day. I am not thrilled with NMSU nor even Las Cruces, NM or America as a whole. America in general lacks the help not just for mental health, but housing and everything else. Colleges today seem to operate on similar principles as secondary schools in general; one must be able to perform as part of a collective group in classes as preparation for future employment. Back then, Batman was not violent, really; we had Ms. PacMan and Centipede but not Grand Theft Auto 6 and RapeLay,other wickedly violent virtual games. We also didn't have an audience which existed for NCIS, CSI, and even the local news crime shows. Gun violence seems to have become glorified, while 'drugs' have become bad- excluding the psychopharmicuticals forced down the throats by mental health professionals upon every child, and even psychologically-challenged adult. We have basically become a society of corporate, and future corporate, human robots; at least here in America. Finally, and probably of most importance,how come they probably have just as many people with psychological issues in the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and even Canada; yet very few of them shooting innocent people? IS THEIR SOME CORRELATION BETWEEN EASY ACCESS TO FIREARMS AND VIOLENCE? Wayne La Pierre of the NRA? Please Answer this.

Hi My name is jenny Kay just want to share my experience with the world on how i got my love back and saved my marriage… I was married for 4 years with 3 kids and we lived happily until things started getting ugly and we had a fights and arguments almost every time… it got worse at a point that he filed for divorce… I tried my best to make him change his mind & stay with me cause i loved him with all my heart and didn't want to loose him but everything just didn't work out… he moved out of the house and still went ahead to file for divorce… I pleaded and tried everything but still nothing worked. The breakthrough came when someone introduced me to this wonderful, great spell caster ANUNUSPELLTEMPLE@YMAIL.COM who eventually helped me out… I have never been a fan of things like this but just decided to try reluctantly cause I was desperate and left with no choice… He did special prayers and cast a love spell on him. Within 7 days he called me and was sorry for all the emotional trauma he had cost me, moved back to the house and we continue to live happily, the kids are happy too and we are expecting our fourth child… I have introduced him to a lot of couples with problems across the world and they have had good news… Just thought I should share my experience cause I strongly believe someone out there needs it… You can email him ANUNUSPELLTEMPLE@YMAIL.COM
This is cute design. Keep posting. Thanks for sharing.

i would like to suggest that you take your son to see a neurologist who specializes in seizure disorders. your son sounds liikehe may be having what are called focal seizures. these are not what are typically thought of as a seizure where a person falls to the ground and tosses about. these are seizures that affect limited areas of the brain. i saw your son describe his problem and he stated that after the event that he gets tired, this is most likely a post ictal state. give it a try. you have nothing to lose and you may find that instead of having a psychiatric issue, he has a neurologic issue. good luck.

I would encourage you to look at food allergies. An allergist can't really help with a lot of food allergies. Start with unprocessed foods like eating pot roast and potatoes, then slowly add one food at a time. Keep a diary of food and behavior. I accidentally figured out I had a problem with gluten because I had the same meal with and without bread. I encouraged my mom to try and her depression went away along with chronic muscle pain. My mom had it so bad that she tried suicide and failed luckily. My wife suffered from headaches post surgery for decades and removing gluten finally made those go away. I've heard of yellow food dye making kids go bonkers. According to wikipedia, tartrazine a yellow dye can affect you hours after ingestion.

Cosmetic Acupuncture is an effective non surgical treatment to reduce the signs of aging. Acupuncture is performed on the face and body to increase local circulation, stimulate collagen and elastin, which helps to fill out lines and give firmness to the skin for a healthy glowing complexion.

A 1996 report in the International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture reported that among 300 cases treated with Cosmetic Acupuncture 90% had marked effects with one course of treatment. The effects include more delicate skin, improved elasticity of the skin, improvement in skin tone and overall rejuvenation.

I am Mariam used every single spell worker on the internet, spent untold amounts of money and discovered they are all fakes...i was the fool though; doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. In the end, I decided that I wanted a tarot reading to know what my future held for me; I contacted a woman who lives locally to me and she told me about a man named (Olalude abija); he does not advertise on the internet, has another job for income, has no set prices, makes no false promises and refuses to help anyone that cannot be helped and even helps
for free sometimes, he will give you proof before taking money. He is a wonderful man and he was the only person who actually gave me real results. I really hope he doesn't mind me advertising his contact on the internet but I'm sure any help/ extra work will benefit him.contact him as oduakar1@live.com He travel sometimes.i cant give out his number cos he told me he don’t want to be disturbed by many people across the world..he said his email is okay and he’ will replied to any emails asap,love marriage,finance, job promotion ,lottery Voodoo,poker voodoo,golf Voodoo,Law & Court case Spells,money voodoo,weigh loss voodoo,any sicknesses voodoo,Trouble in marriage,HIV AIDS,Barrenness(need a child),good Luck voodoo,it's all he does Hope this helps everyone that is in a desperate situation as I once was; I know how it feels to hold onto something and never have a chance to move on because of the false promises and then to feel trapped in wanting something

Your son has far more than autism. It is wrong for people to assume that everyone who has these kind of behaviourial problems also has autism. It is more a case of people with the behaviours you son exhibits may also have autism; as an additional burden. Many people with autism live productive lives. Personally, I believe that autism may bring the OTHER underlying problems to the fore. It is a case of autism; because it appears to either activate areas of the brain on a wider scale or actually have parts of the brain which grow bigger, may cause this type of behaviour. I have autism and Asperer's. I had an abusive female parent; who was also uneducated and ignorant - she took to punching me with a closed fist to get me to do what she wanted. That was not a good idea since eventually I grew taller, bigger, fitter and faster than her and defended myself against her. When I did; purely with the intent of stopping the worst fist flying attacks I had endured she cowered in the corner and screamed at me that I was mad, and things like 'you dare to do this to your mother'. In her mind it was perfectly okay to punch me. She still believes she was the perfect mother. My advice is to let the child wear the pants; and suffer the consequences from the teachers. Naturally you telephone out of his hearing and alert the head of department or other senior teachers and ask that action be taken - and that you will support whatever action is taken other than suspension. The library books; again, suffer the consequences. Do not pay the fines; let it come out of his pocket money. He will be refused permission by the library to borrow items until he pays the fines. As to the 'I am going to kill myself and you'. Instead of merely dragging him off as a surprise; which is very dangerous - you need to vacate the house or where ever he is and go and call an emergency medical response team to come and get him. Later, when he is more communicative, you need to tell him that that is what happens when any one threatens to kill themselves - do not mention yourself. There is something aggravating this; but the this is huge. Holding him in the car was not appropriate - wrestling with him like that may cause further problems. Remember he will be able to kill you with his bare hands. He needs to be placed in long term care where his issues are identified and help is provided. By the way; posting this online is a very stupid act. Your child had library books so he can read - he will be so angry if or when he sees this.
I hope you're proud of the increase in stigma toward the "mentally ill" that you have caused. Only 5% of violent crimes are caused by those diagnosed with mental health issues.
PBS is guilty of capitalizing on this tragedy (as well) by having your ill informed position as part of their program.

Your story, they way you presented it is amazing...and should wake up the other mothers living with this. I guess if this story doesn't move anything, nothing ever will...Yes, I come from Europe and I agree with the one commenting under "Moving to Europe" that it's different there...but this is a huge country and so much harder to raise conscience about one thing or another. Of course I think of solutions as well...and it can come only from mothers...in general. It's time to face it...to accept that there is a problem (or more) in this society. And it can never be solved by crossing your fingers that your child will just be safe next time you'll hear at news about a shooting. Chapeau! For your initiative and courage to stand up for this!
I am happy to find your distinguished way of writing the post. Now you make it easy for me to understand and implement the concept. Thank you for the post.

I appreciate you to sharing this post with us. I really like it. Amazing!
work from home
I am 38 years old, and I am living proof this doesn't have to end poorly, and that violent children can grow older, calmer and lead a normal life, In the past I have had violent episodes which included fights that ended up having the police called, and knifes drawn, I was kicked out of school for fighting on many occasions, and while my brushes with the law were limited from 16-24 there were quite a number of them... I thank both the incredible strength and work my mom went through to keep me alive, and with it... I wasn't diagnosed with anything until age 24, ADHD... but I had violent uncontrollable episodes, my mother used to pin me down and say things like "I won't lose you this way" I never really fit in with other children, I never really got along with anyone, I still don't for the most part, but I am a functional member of society, I work in the computer industry, and I multiple awards in it... I think the thing that worked the most was my mother while she was afraid, would stand up to me, she was relentless and persistent, and never gave up... I think the best strategy she used was to include me, talk to me about my feelings, never let me go, tell me she loved me, even when I know she didn't know what to do... When I was in high school and would sneak out or stay out late she would wait for me on the stairs to talk to me, she wouldn't get angry, she would say "I can't stop you now, your too big, I have to let you learn on your own, but I will always be hear if you need someone to talk to, I will always love you, and I will always be there for you" and she meant it, I was annoyed mostly, I resented her intrusion into my life, ( and sometimes still do ) encouraging me to be a better person, but eventually I started talking to her... Her faith that I was a good person was sometimes all I had... Had it not been for all the late nights on the stairs talking about all the things that had gone wrong, and my mom's reassurance that things would get better, I might have lost out to my darker side and might not be here today...
I don't think there is anything wrong with my brain, I think in some ways I am hyper aware of how people act and what those actions mean, sometimes I get it wrong and think they meant something worse then they did, and sometimes they just didn't mean for me to pick up on their snide comments... But people did love to pick on me, and all I ever wanted to do was fit in, and I think the key thing that my mom did was teach me to fit in... Later in life I met a woman who taught me its ok if I don't fit in, its ok to not fit in, and being different was special, I ended up marrying her.. We have two NORMAL children, and I have never been better... I still struggle with my need for recognition/acceptance, I still have that darker part of me, but its alot less pronounced now, and I use it to drive me with an almost unstoppable desire and energy to learn everything I can and I haven't slowed down yet...
I am an expert in my industry, I can fix cars, play guitar, build a boat, I can do anything I put my mind to (and that interests me), I was awarded a commendation by Secretary of the Navy, have had a number of other awards, my life has been exceptional, but it did start off very violent...
There is hope, be firm, provide love, help him through when people pick on him assure him that he is not alone, find out what he is thinking, and it might help, it did for me, and now I am going to call my mom to tell her again how grateful I am she didn't give up on me. Good luck and best wishes.
Thank you for writing this. I pray that you get the help you need for your son, so that he does not hurt himself or others. I wanted to let you know too, that you are NOT Adam Lanza’s mother - or like any of the others. You are being proactive and trying to get help for your son, even if it means hospitalization. Adam Lanza's mother actually took her critically disturbed son and put a gun in his hand to teach him the "joys" of shooting at a gun range. You, on the other hand, turned the car around and drove straight to the hospital. I think of all the parents who either do nothing - staring at their children's problems like a deer in the headlights until they (and others) are run over by the car - or do too little, because of fear or inconvenience, like Jared Loughner’s mother. Thank God that you are one of the mother's who actually care enough to keep trying to get help in a very real way.
Sending you thanks and support. It must be so difficult. Maybe you've helped the country turn a corner here.
This was very beautiful and interesting.I loved it very much.Thanks for sharing it..

I read this when it first got published on gawker and sent this to my parents right away because of how relevant it was to our situation. I come back to this now and want to ask for some advice, comfort, anything...because we have tried all options and are clueless on what to do next.
Hello, I'm a college student, 19 going on 20, and I have a younger sister who is 12 that goes through almost the same tantrums and fights every night with my parents, particularly my mother. It's nothing surprising when I say that my mom is a "tiger mom" -- immensely strict and stern and all that -- but that has only resulted in her getting scars and bruises all over her neck, arms, etc. I'd be lying if I said that I hated that sort of "loveless treatment" back when I was my sister's age, but it was thanks to my mom's hard hand that I have become who I am and I am greatly thankful for what she has done; unfortunately, my sister only sees it as hate and revenge.
My sister has no sense of hierarchy, shame, or remorse -- whatever she says goes, or else. Like your son, she is argumentative to a fault, and if she gets angry enough, she will start breaking things, pushing my mother around as if to start a fight, and threaten to kill my mother, myself (when I get involved), and/or herself if she doesn't get what she wants. This happens all while screaming, insulting, and making arguments that don't make any sense. If we get her to calm down, however, she lets us know that she isn't completely clueless to the fact that she has a problem, but she denied so much beforehand that I've stopped believing her pleas and "I will change"'s.
A lot of the issue emerges from her not being able to do what is expected of her -- finishing her homework, studying for tests, practicing, even washing up before going to bed -- but when we tell her once to do something, she tends to ignore us because she is too mesmerized with her smartphone, but we tell her more than once she will yell at us for "nagging" and will say that she won't do it since we nagged her, and then the fight will develop from there. As a result her grades have been slipping, even though we know that she is fully capable of acing her classes if she tried, which gives my mother more to stress out about.
That's the general idea of my family's situation, but there is a lot more to be said...but I would just like to know, what do you suggest is the best way to handle such a matter? At the rate my sister is going, she is bound to get worse in high school, and because I go to a college that is states away from home I can't defend my mother forever...and that truly scares me. We have been seeing a counselor, and I have tried to talk some sense into her, providing my own experiences and such, but nothing has been working and it's just plummeting me into insanity.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could give us some insight on what we could do.
Please write me back at krimmsonn @ gmail.com, we really need some help.

I was having a boyfriend. We were known for long time and we promised we will be together for ever. Both of us are married and not satisfied with the present spouse. But because of some misunderstanding I quarreled with him and humiliated him in front of his friends. After that I realized my mistake and apologized with him. He told me he will try to forget everything. After that we met again he promised me everything happened because of misunderstanding and now we will be together for ever.But after some while, we never met each other. no proper communication from him for 1 month. But for me he is my everything. He is the only one who gave such a good satisfaction in my life. I wanted him. I wanted us to meet, to have sex, to love each other again.

I want to encourage you that you son's behavior may improve with age. My youngest son exhibited exactly the same behavior from age 12 on. I thought I would die-literally. We finally kicked him out of the house when his behavior endangered others. We KNEW that he could not help his behavior, and it broke my heart to do it, but he was out of control. He went from one treatment facility to another as long as we had insurance. We spent our life savings on treatment. Sometimes he was homeless. But we stuck to our belief that we could not sacrifice our safety. It would help neither him nor us. Eight years later, he had been beat up by life, broken my heart often, and learned some hard lessons. At 33, He returned home a broken man and better able to remain calm in the face of the frustrations of daily life. (Talk about inflexible!!) He lives with us now, and it isn't a perfect situation, but he is now willing to take meds and understands that when I remind him to stay calm, I am just coaching him for his own good. He is doing better than ever. He still cannot tolerate the interaction required for any job, but he has scrubbed, sanded, repainted, stained, caulked, or replaced almost every inch of this house. I brag on him constantly and he loves it. The doctor told me, "Quantity over quality." In other words, brag on these folks early and often over any little thing. My heart goes out to you, but don't give up hope.
Oh my greatness, I must say this to the world. I'm Daniella living in the US, I'm a patient of Uterine Fibroid tumor, i have seek for drugs, gone for many checkup, i hardly even sleep at night. I have been suffering from this ill health for about 9-11yrs now. I have taken drugs to suppress and all other medications but it still there.
Just couple of weeks ago i was surfing the internet and i saw someone talking about how Dr. Lamp cure her from breast Cancer which almost took her life with his UGBESIN BT1 medicine with some few spiritual work. It amze me so much that i had to contact Dr. Lamp through his email on herbalcuremedicine@live.com for his spiritual Herbal medicine to cure Uterine Fibroid tumor.
All he told me was that i should abide to conditions and in just 7days, i should go for checkup to be sure i am cured.
This sounds so heartwarming and so how funny but i gave it a bold step.
He asked me to send my picture so he can pray in his temple as he work his medicine. He gave me his OTOPY DV HERBAL, Certified by the FDA and UNICEF, generally accepted worldwide. he asked me to take it for 7days and also asked me to abide to conditions as the OTOPY DV HERBAL would was my stomach without pains.
My dear can you believe that after seven days i went to the hospital to know how check my self because i was now feeling light, the doctor was shocked to asked me what i took. He did several scanning and nothing was there anymore i was totally cured and healed. this Dr. Lamp herbal medicine surprised me.. he is currently helping my friend out who has not been able to conceive after 13yrs of marriage. All my friends and relatives wants to meet him for vote of thanks.
Dr. Lamp said he has different drugs for different illness and he is still currently inventing a new one that can cure any form of sickness concerning blood cancer.
Please meet this man if you are ill because health is wealth. Dont go waste your money on hospital bills just as i did for about 11yrs without results. his email again is herbalcuremedicine@live.com.
Thanks for sacrific specific crucial material. Carry on posting accurate very great word for us thank you.

My Name is Mrs Angela I was married to my husband for 10 years and we were both bless with three children, living together as one love, until last 2012 when things was no longer the way the was [when he lost his job]. But when he later gets a new job 6 months after, he stated sleeping outside our matrimonial home. Only for me to find out that he was having an affair with the lady that gave him the job. since that day, when i called him, he don’t longer pick up my calls and nothing since to come out good. Yet my husbands just still keep on seeing the lady. Until I met a very good friend of my who was also having a similar problem, who introduced me to a very good love spell caster. But i told her that if it has to do with things that i am not interested, but she said that it has nothing to do with pay first. but the only thing he was ask to do was just to go and buy the items to cast the spell, and that was what she did. And she gave me the spell caster e-mail address and phone number. When i contacted him, i was so surprise when he said that if i have the faith that i will get my husband back in the nest three [3] days, and off which it was really so. but i was so shock that i did not pay any thing to Dr odia but my husband was on his knells begging me and the children for forgiveness. This testimony is just the price i have to pay. This man DR Odia is good and he is the author of my happiness. His e-mail address is odialovespelltemple@gmail.com

I have Emailed so many sites online looking for a good spell caster untill i was directed by a 20 years old boy to wiseindividualspell@gmail.com: wiseindividualspell@gmail.com At first i never believed him because he was requesting for some amount of money to buy items to cast the spell, it took him 4 weeks to convince me and something occur to my mind and i said let me give him a trial. I was very shocked when Nichasin called four days after i sent Dr.Zack Balo the items money. He apologies for all he has done wrong and i am very happy that we are together today now because he proposed to marry me. I will advise you contact wiseindividualspell@gmail.com because he has done wonders in my life and i believe he can help you out in any problem.

My therapist gave me a copy of your story. THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have a 12 year old son who is in his 4th facility in the last 18 months. There is nothing set up to help people facing this kind of family crisis....so we are thrown into the department of children services and are treated like criminals. I had started my own blog several months ago "A hell like no other" I was just trying to get some of this nightmare out of my head and find others struggling like me. I have not posted in a long time but I know I need to. And in looking through the other posts I know there is a community out there of people living this same impossible situation and I would love to make some connections. Thank you so much.
Thank you this is a nice article. Do you know there many people feel mentally illness on the last age. For them assisted living is must. And assisted living for mentally ill is the only way of removing their illness. So please write something on it.
very nice to see the information. Thanks for posting... online games
I have recently posted a piece on my blog about blogs going viral since the topic captured my imagination. Do you have any thoughts on the matter? How has the response to your post changed you? When will you be release the book I Am Michael's Mom?

Thanks

Sorry, left out a quotation mark that didn't validate the link:
Tossing It Out
I'm here via Lee/Arlee Bird at Tossing It Out.
Your essay is powerful and sad. I pray that mental illness can be effectively treated (without side effects) in the very near future.
I don't know much about it, but maybe there are good treatments already available; which in that case, the bureaucracy needs to be lessened so that you, Michael, and others can get the help you need.
Blessings. Big ones.
Wow, thank you so much for sharing. My heart goes out to you and your family.
Have you ever thought about seeing an alternative health practitioner, like a naturopath? As a practitioner myself, I've seen a lot of nutritional supplements and diet changes evolving mental illness with magnificent results. Looks like aromatic amino acids are in deficiency (5HTP, N Acetyl Cystiene, Melatonin, etc). Big hugs to you, you are such a strong, patient, and loving woman.

Everyone who would believe the thoughts of a killer would kill, you don't have a choice. You are on autopilot.
There is only one way out, question what you believe. And Byron Katie found a perfect way to do that.
Millions of people do it and it changes your life so fast, it's unbelievable!
I quote her site:
The Work of Byron Katie is a way of
identifying and questioning the thoughts
that cause all the anger, fear, depression, addiction, and violence in the world. Experience the happiness of undoing
those thoughts through The Work, and
allow your mind to return to its true, awakened, peaceful, creative nature.

YOU ARE A WARRIOR!!!!Please keep posting and please keep doing all that you do to both make your son safe and keep The Powers That Be looking into what can be done. I too had a son that kept me awake many, many nights. Too many visits from the sheriff over incidents with knives and terrified neighbor children. He's 30 now and making me a proud father and many years of shame and terror.
I can relate. My oldest son was 11 years old when I had to call the police on him for the first time. I even started sleeping with my bedroom door locked and some pushed against the door. He is 20 now and the violent outbursts still happen but they are few and far between. His diagnosis while growing up was ADHD, ODD, CD, anxiety and adjustment disorder. He was diagnosed with bipolar manic depression when he was 16. Unfortunately now that he's an adult, it's hard to keep him on his meds.
His I.Q is also off the charts.
My daughter which is 9, is also bipolar. She was diagnosed when she was 4 with bipolar hypomania. I ended up having to let my oldest son move in with my mom because my son and my daughter triggered each other.
I would like to offer a suggestion. Given that prescription drugs don't work for your son, have you tried giving your child some standard health supplements, most notably vitamins C and D, to see if they help. Most people are deficient in these two vitamins. When my healthy daughter was very young, I started giving her vitamin D for general good health, and noticed within one day a positive improvement in mood and personality. This was completely unexpected but very welcome indeed. Same improvements in mood and personality when I started giving her some vitamin C for general good health. Here are two non-profit organizations that promote vitamins C and D:
www.vitamincfoundation.org
www.vitamindcouncil.org
Hope this can help your son. Thank you.
My partner and I have been trying for a baby for over two years now, We were going to a fertility clinic for about 5 months before somebody told us to contact this spell caster who is so powerful, i contacted him at this email; fiokporspiritualtemple@gmail.com , for him to help, then i told him our problem, he told me that i will either conceive in June 2013 or July 2013,but after two years of trying we were at a point where we were willing to try anything. And I'm glad i came to Dr fiorkpor, Because he predictions put us at ease, and I honestly believe him, and his gods really helped us as well, I am thankful for all he has done. after few weeks the doctor confirm that i am pregnant thank you DR Fiokpor for helping us get a baby. he can cast any spell you need, either to cure any sickness, Divorce, Ex back, good job and so onnn
As a child I acted violently. I would threaten to kill my parents and have outbursts. I did these things because they scared my parents. It got themto leave me alone for a little while and got me away from the nonstop yelling and emotional abuse. I had terrible parents who told me every day of my life how they wished I was never born and beat the crap out of me. They were abusive and narcissistic. I don't know you but maybe you should be thinking about how you are parenting your child.
I see your point but don't agree.
1. She changed her son's name.
2. In just a few years, he won't look anything like the photo of himself in the article.
3. And most important, removing her article would deprive all of us of a vital understanding of this problem.
She is doing a public service, and deserves both empathy and praise.
While I know this post is older, it's a lot similar to what I'm dealing with with my son. He has seen 8 doctors now because none seem to get him the help he needs. He's been hospitalized for short term and that hasn't helped. I'm worried he will be getting charges pressed against him and that's something I do not think will help him nor that he needs. He's been diagnosed with too many diagnoses to mention them all with the most recent being odd and cd. However, any medications they have put him on has not helped. I can't send him back to the mental health facility because in my state every one of them never has an open bed when he has his episodes. The local hospitals always send him back home right after and the episodes continue. Recently, his school had called me, which is an alternative school for those that can't manage in a traditional classroom. They were concerned of just how angry he got and how his eyes batted and looked like it wasn't even him in his eyes. This is exactly what I've been telling doctors I also see during his rage. I'm at a lost of where to go from here but I sure don't want him in jail. I feel like the doctors aren't helping at all and they are just trying to dope him up instead of get answers which isn't helping at all. While I did not realize just how many other parents have gone through this same thing, I've stressed that more people should be made aware of mental illness. I'm also sure other parents can relate when I say it makes me feel like I'm failing him because I can't get him the proper health. Something even worse happening is one of my biggest fears!!!
I read this year's ago, and it popped up on my feed again. I haven't searches for update but have you ever heard about PANDAS/PANS. He has classic symptoms especially if psych drugs are not working.
Thank you for your time and energy to keep people talking about this topic. My son has also struggled, but we were fortunate to help him early on, and he is doing well. My concern is other youth, who I see, who are not getting the help they need. I appreciate your time!! Best wishes to you!!
I think she is scared. But what her son is doing is more grandstanding than substance. Yes it's hard to believe, but I have DID and my alter would do the same things her son did. Would he actually kill someone? No. But he uses fear to get what he wants. That's what I see here. She needs to understand it's a way to control her. And doing what she did will make it worse. She needs to figure his issues out, not make a climate of fear where any infraction results in hospitalization. She's using mental health treatment as punishment. That will make it harder for him to want and accept help. Hospitals do not exist as a "if you do that again, this is your punishment ". She uses it as a reinforcer. That's gonna make him worse.
Hello, I am a Belgian mother of 17-year old son with autism. My son is verbal,followed normal education with help from me, his issues : shyness, constipation, concentration problems, problems with maturity, practically no friends because interaction with people is difficult, parasite, yeast on him, acne, kind of dandruff on top of his head. Since the age of 8, we have been trying a lot of natural supplements, hospitals med and i have wasted a lot of money trying to make him became a man and live freely without being intimidated by friends in the neighbor hood also to get him better and more focused for school matters and his general health. Nothing ever seems to pull through not until one day, i decided to share his situation to a very close friend of mine who claims there is an herbal man who cured her 12 years old son called Baba Alika and has also helped a lot of women to cure their children's Autism. quickly i contacted his email: babaalikahealinghome@gmail.com been giving to me by miss Ava, just to give him a test, i spoke to him he asked me to purchase his Autism roots herbs and seed oil which i did, he promised to send it as soon as purchased and thereafter i received it and start to use the Autism herbal med immediately on him for only 7 days instructed by Baba Alika. it was unbelievable after 21 days i was my son totally cured and free from Autism disgrace and embarrassment. There was so much improvement. He seems to get more awareness, gives more interaction at home, interact with friends that never wanted him close. Today i am here to spread the good news of my son health on how Baba Alika saved him from the nightmare and outbreaks of Autism. You can contact him via email: babaalikahealinghome@gmail.com if you are still in my past situation...I guarantee you, your Autism child is going to be healed and feel alive again just as mine right now.
I agree, something must be done, there are many children out there with mental illness and the healthcare system doesn’t know what it’s doing. There should be more options instead of prison. As Ms. Long states “that’s the only way our nation can every truly heal” I agree if we were to talk about this and how bad it is hurting the nation, people will then start to see and realize. But they won’t because they only want to notice when something bad has happened. And that’s the truth.
